The Liverpool Football Club’s reliance on analytics

At Melwood, the club’s training complex in a residential Liverpool neighborhood, Graham works in a white-walled room, down a corridor from the coaches and the cafeteria. The background of the most recent analyst to be hired, Will Spearman, is even less conventional. Another club might conceivably hire an analyst like Graham, or Steele, or Waskett, and maybe even Spearman.
